An articulating borescope will show the top of the bore.you wont be able to see all the bore especially at the very top. only way to be absolutely sure is to pull the head.

You did not get a CEL On after you gutted the cats on your Whipple Tune?Stock whipple tune, 3.625 pulley, 93 octane....kooks high flow cats started failing after a few hundred miles ( sulfur smell after WOT pulls). I spoke with Kooks directly and was advised their standard high flow cats are NOT intended for forced induction applications. I gutted them and car runs way better.
CEL came on after about 200 miles of driving with the headers and high flow cats. Some guys get the CEL with the cats, some don't. I would use the whipple flare to clear the code, but it would come back on after about 40 miles.You did not get a CEL On after you gutted the cats on your Whipple Tune?
Yeah but they’re $369 each and should be welded in place. Catless is cheaper and makes more sound and power. Only drawback is the stink..Yeah, the Kooks green cats are really the only catalytic converters thats safe to on a car with boost. Their green cats are good to 950 HP if I recall correctly.
That's like saying the only drawback to castration is you lose a little weight and become liberal. Car without cats smells like crap and it doesn't take long to stink it up. You guys without cats are the stinky kid in class. I'm not talking "I forgot my deodorant today" smell, talking "been going to the gym for a week without a shower" funk.Yeah but they’re $369 each and should be welded in place.

Shot in the dark, but do you have a photo of cats?We removed the centers of my kooks cats. Benefits of a cat delete with the appearance of a cat.
Car drives noticeably better and no more sulfur smell after WOT pulls.
Considering adding some vibrant performace 3 inch resonators to get rid of the new found raspiness byproduct of no cats.
Gutted catShot in the dark, but do you have a photo of cats?
Dont gut just get the ARH connection pipes .. beefcake got mine for me $339 shipped and with them i retain my arh liftime warranty..I have ARH cats with my whipple over a year
no issues.....Maybe I should gut mine,anyone do that ?
How hard to do ?
Not true! If you have the right exhaust. I installed the varex exhaust. It has the valves at the end of the mufflers. When closed its almost quieter than stock. Open its loud behind the car, but not inside.Removing cats on a SC car with headers equals LOUD. Been there, done that. I wouldn't do it. Too loud. Of course, if that is what you want, then OK.
